Mon, 13 Jul 2015 09:12:19 +0000reviews608095One of the three best horror games of all times! (Along with Penumbra: Black Plague and Amnesia: The Dark Descent) Compared to Frictional Games' A:TDD , Penumbra has harder puzzles.Penumbra: Overture review by NotGamerButPlayerhttp://www.moddb.com/games/penumbra-overture/reviews/597996

Sun, 26 Jan 2014 19:15:46 +0000reviews535439One of the best games I have ever played. For me it is THE definition of the Horror Adventure Genre.
Level Design:
++Balanced Details
++Enough Object Interactions
++Perfect Dark Ambient Lighting
++Clear level structure
++Scale Perfect (neither long times to walk)
Gameplay:
++Physics Interactions(Door Physics)
++Easy operable HUD(Inventory)
-Playtime could be longer :P
Story:
++Enough Background Information
++Well narrated with the notes
-More other mediums to narrated the story(Maybe short movies on tv screens)
Sound Design:
++Plain and realiable sounds
++Not to much background music
++Terrifiying melody if the monster chase you
But for the first project as a gaming company (if my informations are right) Well done! :) Penumbra: Overture review by ColdHuntresshttp://www.moddb.com/games/penumbra-overture/reviews/481842

Sat, 25 May 2013 10:36:36 +0000reviews459165I only played the demo but, I will tell you what I liked from it. The story was interesting, the puzzles was challenging, and through the demo, I was close to the screen waiting for something scary and when it did, I jumped. This a definite competitor to amnesia, great game!Penumbra: Overture review by ScreamScreenhttp://www.moddb.com/games/penumbra-overture/reviews/458238
Wed, 22 May 2013 11:27:21 +0000reviews458238Never have I been so fascinated by a game from Frictional Games :D Penumbra is also one of the coolest first person games you can find, if you ask me :D I rated it 9 out of 5 things I focus on when reviewing, it's Quality, Scares, Length, Lag and Story (atmosphere and stuff like that is included in the Quality!)
Quality: I really love the voice-acting in this game it's epic nuff said! The atmosphere is creepy and dark when having to walk through caves with giant spiders, my god xD Scares: Honestly this is more of a puzzle game than a scare game in my opinion but I really like that the only threat is, well Im not gonna spoil it for the ones who hasn't played it yet :D Not many scares, a little sad but I didn't make the game, and it's still a really good game eitherway :D Length: OK length of the game I suppose, took 16-17 episodes to finish (16-17 since I ended episode 16 right at the ending xD) Lag: Very little lag, it lagged a little bit, but not much ;) Story: SO MANY NOTES! When you find a note it is super long xD I didn't read any of them because I dont have time, but I know the story, it's really good going to Greenland and stuff freezing to death is probably better than being eaten and slaughtered by monsters xD
Quality: 9 - Scares: 7 - Length: 8 - Lag: 9 - Story: 9 It actually ended with a 9 instead, not an 8 :D Good job!Penumbra: Overture review by stjohnjhttp://www.moddb.com/games/penumbra-overture/reviews/449071
Mon, 22 Apr 2013 17:09:58 +0000reviews449071Awesome game, and definitely the most combative out of all three games in the series. A solid dangerous ride all the way through, it also provided puzzles and environmental dangers. Damn those spiders! The very end with hallway literally scared me to death...
